La Feria Sevilla

I was not sure what to expect when I visited the city of Seville. It was supposed to be a side trip for my vacation, a short train ride from Madrid. But what I didn’t realize when I went there, the city was celebrating their annual La Feria Sevilla and it turned out to be one of the better decisions I made on my travels. A week when the whole city celebrated made the whole city very colorful and alive. Girls were wearing their traditional dresses and dancing flamenco. Guys on their traditional suits. It was just lovely. Everyone was so beautiful.

Do not miss Plaza de España when you visit Sevilla. The unique architecture is elegant yet whimsical and on a nice day the canal sparkles in the sunlight.
